OX2, Axpo sign PPA for 30 MW Kropuln and 30 MW Storbacken wind farms in Ostrobothnia

Axpo’s subsidiaries Axpo Nordic AS and Axpo Finland Oy have agreed to buy the full output generated by 30 MW Kröpuln and the 30 MW Storbacken wind farms currently under construction in Finland’s Ostrobothnia region.

The Kröpuln and Storbacken wind farms will be powered by 14 Vestas turbines generating about 206 GWh of clean energy per year, which is enough to power 120,000 homes. Commercial operations could begin in the fourth quarter of 2021.

The PPA´s were signed with the renewable energy developer OX2 which acts as the project’s asset manager throughout construction. 

Earlier this year both farms were acquired by Infracapital.
